Dublin airport connection?

Next month I am flying from Boston-Rome on Aer Lingus, with about eight hours connection time in the Dublin Airport. Is this enough time to get into the city center for a couple of hours? I see there are a couple of bus lines from airport to city center, and it appears they run fairly frequently with a 30-40 minute travel time; has anyone done this before? Is this information accurate? And if it's true that this would leave enough time to see Dublin for a couple hours or so, what should I do/see? Even if it's only to stop at a pub for a Guinness, I'm happy doing that, but if there's anything else I should experience in Dublin for a couple hours, what should I do?

    Your info on the buses are pretty accurate, you could also take the Airport Express which is quicker (but more expensive) or a Taxi. You might not be able to get out of the Airport though. I personally wouldn't do it, I'd spend the whole time worried about getting back to the airport and would have any fun!

    Check you're actually allowed leave the airport first.

    You could always take the airport express in and out of the city, but it is €6 each way. It's fast, though.

    could be adequate time, in case you are able to pre print your Ryanair boarding bypass this could keep you it sluggish. I additionally think of Ryanair are charging €20 in case you havent already revealed this bypass.
